Warriors second-round pick Tuxi was interviewed by ESPN and talked about her experience in the summer league.

"It's very difficult," Tuxi said of Xia Lian's experience. "Athleticism and game rhythm are obviously another level, especially at the Warriors. I feel that our offense is the fastest in the league. After a few minutes of offense and defense conversion, we are exhausted. However, this style of play also drags down the opponents and allows us to compete with our opponents in some games with a big gap."

"Then it's just to figure out that I was selected for a reason. They obviously saw something in me and believed in me, so the key is to find confidence, be able to play in the transition attack, or hit some three-pointers when the opportunity appears." Tuxi added.

Xia Liantuxi played 5 games, averaging 7.0 points, 3.4 rebounds, 1.4 steals and 0.6 blocks per 21.0 minutes per game, with a shooting percentage of 27.0/28.6/64.7% in three events.
